PC Preview - 'Infernal'

by Rainier on Jan. 1, 2006 @ 1:30 a.m. PST | Filed under E3 - Post - E3 2006

Genre: Shooter
Publisher: Playlogic
Developer: Metropolis
Release Date: Q4 2006

As far as original plots go, a battle raging between good and evil with one man stuck in the middle is not terribly unique or interesting, but fortunately, Infernal is better than the plot might suggest..

PC Preview - 'Ground Control 2: Operation Exodus'

Genre: Action
Developer : Massive Entertainment
Publisher : Vivendi
Release Date : June 22, 2004

A new title from perennial heavyweight Sierra is always looked upon by me with some trepidation. Over they years they have given me not only some of the most memorable gaming experiences I have had, they have also been the perpetrators of some major disappointments. And when they release a new RTS title that really doesn’t bring anything new to the table, well, I think you can see where I am going…

When Blizzard released the original Warcraft: Orcs vs. Humans, the gaming

Genre: Sports
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Canada
Release Date: Q4 2006

Behind closed doors at EA's booth, you can see interactive setups of EA's 2007 sports lineup - that is, if you're as cool as we media-type people are.
